Jamie is currently on his ski holiday to France but unfortunately his wallet went missing during the journey (stolen or hopefully mislaid) so I transferred money to one of his friends because all of his cards and euros were gone. Luckily he is insured but we are still hoping that the wallet will turn up. Marjory, Forrest and the children came round for a Chinese meal on Saturday evening. It was lovely to see them and we had a festive evening sitting and chatting in the lounge beside the Christmas tree with the fire blazing away in the hearth. There was a big thunderstorm during the night; we could hear the thunder crashing quite close which made me very glad to be in my cosy bed. This morning after a decent long lie, James and I went out for a walk to deliver our local Christmas cards. We walked around for an hour or so; James had arranged the cards in an order which made for a pleasant circuit of the area. It stayed dry until the very end of our walk so we were glad that we went out in the morning. On our way home we went to Subway to pick up sandwiches for lunch for Ally, Cat and Davie who were all spending the morning studying very conscientiously.
The afternoon was rainy and blustery but we had a pleasant time doing some shopping and errands (I nipped over to Whole Foods BY MYSELF which was much more relaxing than my last visit!) and I also made some phone calls and arrangements. Grandma came round for dinner as usual and we watched the Strictly Come Dancing results show. It has been a pleasant and useful weekend.
